High-Speed Multi-Imaging of Repetitive Unipolar Nanosecond-Pulsed DBDs

摘要

Dielectric barrier discharges (DBDs) are being studied for a wide range of biomedical and industrial applications. In this paper, qualitative results coming from synchronized high-speed and Schlieren multi-imaging of a unipolar nanosecond-pulsed DBD are presented, with the final aim of showing plasma structure, filament movement, and refractive index gradients in different interelectrode gaps and counter electrode materials.
